Man's death under investigation

Authorities are investigating the death of a man whose body was
found in a creek bed north of Escondido.

An Evergreen Nursery employee discovered the body shortly before
9 a.m. Friday in the 27200 block of North Broadway in the rural,
unincorporated area, sheriff's homicide investigator Janet
Ryzdynski said in a statement.

The dead man, described as white and between 25 and 35 years
old, had been identified by Saturday afternoon, a San Diego County
medical examiner's investigator said. The name was withheld,
pending notification of relatives.

The results of an autopsy to determine the cause of death
weren't available yet, said the medical examiner's
investigator.
